The Iowa Il Dako a strike,

Mason City, To-, Nov. l5-The strike
on the Iowa and Dakota division of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul road
has continued throughout the day. The
grievance has arisen mainly from the
running OF double-headers. Since the
memorable Ohatsworth disaster last
August they have not been back ward in
openly avowing their feelings in regard
to the hazardous custom. Aside from the
danger OF running doubie- headers Is the
matter of extra labor IMPOSED upon the
brakemep. They have repeatedly pro.
tested against the practice, and q few
weeks ago, on tho western end OF the
division, crews refused t o go out and
alter some parlsy the trains moved on
With a single locomotive. The trouble
broke ont afresh yesterday. Milt
Hops train, No IL, was notified ct
Calmsr to take an additional engine in
to McGregor, but. the brakemen, one Of
who is named Boone, refused to accom-
pany the train farther il it was made o
double-header. and the result was that
the braksmen won their point. But be-
tore the return trip was made from Mo
Gregor, Hopp was notified by telegraph
from the Office here to lay Boone off and
when the latter photographed to know the
cause, he was asked why he refused to
run with q double header. and wered
more humorouely than gsntlemanly
because / wasn't built that way." He
Was thsn notified that he Yves discharged,
and on applying tor 8 pass home was in
formed that he could get one
only by paying for the tele-
graphing he had done, and on his COM
plying. the pass was forthcoming. On
Boone's arrival here his fellow brakemen
made his cause theirs, and circulated o
petition to Superintendent Moll, asking
his reinstatement. and stating that if
their petition was not granted, and the
double-header system abolished they
would leave the smploy of the road.
The petition now bears the signature of
forty-eight brakemen. There are said
to be Lightweight On the division and
ii is claimed that a msiority OF these
viii quit work unless Boone is reinstated
TO morrow or q promise of his speedy
reinstatement made. Our city has been
wholly free OF labor troubles and We
trust that the present difficulties may
be amicably adjusted and the threatened
storm avefted.
